Hey all, In our old nagios implementation we had the ability to enclose our nagios variables in single or double quotes to ensure information with special chars are properly enclosed in strings when sending to event handlers.
In my current deployment of opsview 3.3.0 when I attempt to quote up a variable in the event handler definition, for instance '$LONGSERVICEOUTPUT$', I get this error: Can only use alphanumerics, space or: $.- This is throwing my event handlers for loops because when "BadThingsHappen" and some of the service checks time out it sends (Service Check Timed Out) to the event handler, which bash promptly barfs on with a syntax error because the variable isn't quoted. Now most people would argue to bump the timeout but in this particular case it is a monitored service that has caused a load spike on the machine. I need the event handlers to fire on this timeout because our handlers will move some services off the box and also page us about the issue. Is this quoting problem by chance fixed in later versions or if someone knows of a way for me to fix/modify this field sanity check?
